The "Ohio State pluses" thread got me thinking...why is everyone applying to their prospective schools?
now I wish I went to a school with a more holistic focus like Colorado State.
Oregon: I'm from the northwest but don't want to live in Pullman (blech) and Corvallis is a great place, I'm nervous at how young the school is but it seems very well regarded... why can't they have a more professional website?!!
PennI especially loved that you could do an extra veterinary business program (so helpful if you ever own a clinic).
Missouri: Close to home again. I am very interested in their genetic research that is ongoing in idiopathic eplipsey. I should have considered Michigan for this as well but figured that out too late. I think it would be a good fit for me as well.
From what I recall from looking into that program, you would have to be accepted to the Wharton School of Business separately. Being the best business school in the country, that is pretty difficult to do. If you are really interested in doing a combined DVM/MBA than you may want to look into some other schools (many offer that) unless you are a fantastic business applicant.
plus it's Penn.
You're thinking of the combined VMD/MBA program - there's a separate veterinary business "certificate" program at Penn where you take some classes on business and get a notation on your degree (or something like that) saying you're qualified to do business as a vet.
For the VMD/MBA program, I'm not sure why the fact that it's a good business school should deter you from Penn - I'd think that would make it more appealing...
